afternoon rain
morning sunshine
evening musky fog
days end challenges
those of us who see it,
changing times
conventions gone
no longer challenged
disinherited we few
standing where we can
pointing the way back
remembering...
tributes paid to mistresses
failed marriages,
children estranged,
marked and relocated
with passion against
their return...
monument renamed
battles never fought
seasons dismissed for
lack of evidence.
the spoils divided
without the wars and
we sit on porches
with our cappuccinos
wondering where
it all disappeared to.
